From Hard Times to Good.

There is a wide difference from al
economic point of view between the
closing OF the year 1856 and that of its
predecessor. Money which twelve
months ago lay idle in bank vaults OF
was loaned with difficulty is now in
active demand and use. Railroad bust
ness, which was then languishing, il
now brisk, and many dividends are be-
ing paid which were then despaired of.
The wholesale and retail trades have
both changed from dull to a reason
able lively condition. Miners and man.
ufacturers share adequately in the gen.
eral movement, and there is specia,
prosperity with all who have any inter-
estS in iron.
In short, a year ago we were still,
lingering in protracted season of de
preston. And now if we are not fairl,
III the midst of good times we are wei
over the threshold of them. In Somt
sections of the South the change ha-
been more marked than it has in the
North, and when a lull comes over thu
manufacturing business again it viii
be found that the Southern mills vii
not be shut down first, so strongly art
they intrenched in natural advantages
for securing raw material. There is
cause for congratulation surely, and il
there were any ground for confidence
in wise legislation the business future
would look entirely bright. We mus
have legislation of some kind to prevent
money from being taken out of circula
ton and piled up in the Treasury, ano
so long as that legislation remains uD.
certain, so long will there be threat
ening cloud in the horizon.
Congress has not had such an i'm
important responsibility |
resting upon 1t for many years.-N. Y. |
